20 THE TECH REVIEW 1928 ZAREH EGAVIAN Ladies and gentlemen, your eyes now rest upon the portrait of our fellow student. Zareh. He is popular among many students. “Egav” is an enthusiastic soccer and track man, in which sports he “shines.” Last March “Egav” competed with Baskin, the world’s hurdling “champ,” at the Armory. Of course “Egav” let Baskin heat him so he would not get all the honors. “Egav” excells in lunch with French listed as a close second. Zareh is studying the art of “electricity” and we shall prohahly hear of him in the future as the Pres- ident of a great electrical concern. Soccer, 25, '26, '27; Track. '26, '27, 28; French Club, '26. JAMES RICHARD ELLIOTT And next we come to the happy countenance of J. Richard Elliott, known to his classmates as “Dick.” Although he has red hair, he has no temper, and his list of friends is outnumbered only by the standing army. The volume of “Dick’s” vocal power can he confirmed by any of his friends who accompany him to all the games. Dick is always in evidence at our student dances and socials and he seems to have the ability to get along successfully with the weaker sex. After graduation, “Dick” will enter the business world. Spanish Club, ’26, '27. CLAIRE ERNSTOF Gentility and refinement are composites of Claire’s “make up.” It would be hard to picture Claire without a smile, for she is always happy. We have Classical High to thank for sending her to us in our Sophomore year. All play and no work is not her motto. Her mental calibre is evinced by the fact that she is a member of the Honor Society. Rhode Island State is the choice of Claire in the fall. Don’t forget the class of '28, Claire. R. 1. Honor Society; French Club, ’26, '27; Art Club, '27; Debating Society. ’26, '27, '28. Senior Play, Romeo and Jane.” SALVATORE J. ESPOSITO “Sal” “This is station C-L-A-S-S-I-C-A-L—squee-eek-erk zzr-sh—bang!” “Something gone wrong!” exclaims our hero. “I’ll have to tune in another station.” “This is station T-E-C-H.” “At last I have it.” Estimable “Sal” Esposito, after listening in for two years from Classical, found his apparatus suddenly had developed static. He changed and since then, the clear “Tech” wave length has not bothered him. Al- though he has not participated in athletics, he has aided the Glee Club with his “extra quality” voice. He is undecided as to his future. Glee Club, ’27; Treasurer, ’28; Italian, ’28.

1928 THE TECH REVIEW 19 ROSE DORIS DUBINSKY When Rose glides most unobtrusively through the corridors we all wait in excited anticipation of amuse- ment. This demure maiden oft hears away the palm in Terpsichorean competition, hut none would ever guess the capabilities of her genial personality. From her astute little head come many splendid suggestions for our Tech Review. She lias not as yet decided which college will benefit by her humor which rivals that of “George Ade.” Debating Society, ’28; French Club, '26, '27; Tech Review Board, ’28; Senior Play, Romeo and—Jane.” LESTER BYRON DYER A quiet, studious, unassuming student is “Les. Al- though not athletically inclined because of stature, “Les” displayed an untiring effort as a moral supporter of his teams. His faithful work as a student may he judged by his success during various examinations, from which he emerged victorious. His earnest striving for higher things, and his loyalty for his dear old school, endeared him to his fellow class- mates. With his talent for comic interpretation we con- fidently predict a prosperous future as a cartoonist. Radio Club, ’26; Art Club, '27, ’28; Dramatic Club, '27, '28. HENRY ALLEN EARLE, JR. “Dec” Yes, this is the fellow who steams down Summer Street every morning in his new Ford. Dec came to us in that memorable year 1924 and since then, he has added to his long list of friends at every opportunity. Dec has not participated in athletics to any great ex- tent. but he has faithfully supported them both vocally and financially. He enjoys a good time as shown by his attendance at all student dances with a red ribbon on his lapel. Next fall, he will enter R. I. State or the School of Design. j Home Room Representative, ’26; Tennis Team, ’26, '27 ; Stu- dent Dance Committee. '27, ’28; Social Committee, ’28; Cap- tain Tennis, ‘28. HARRY SAMUEL ECKSTEIN Ah! 'Phe hoy with a srnile for everybody! That is one reason for Harry’s popularity— Reason two: His personality is gne that you on) help liking. Reason thre Aid® vykll t to tell them aumccause Harry has been making friends and good records vgyer since he came to Tech. Harry has been a really good member of his class. He has at- tended to all the socials, and all athletics have been benefited from his promptly paid dues. His future is undecided, but we wish him success in whatever voca- tion he may choose.

1928 THE TECH REVIEW 21 ELSA SONJA FAGRELIUS “Sunny” Serious? Well yes. when the occasion demands, but as a general rule “Sunny” belongs to that group which the world calls happy-go-lucky. Good matured and fond of fun, Sonja has enjoyed many of our good times. These good times, however, have not interfered with her studies, as her Honor Society pin signifies. She is often seen with her inseparable “pals,” “Siggy” and Etta. Elsa plans to enter Gibbs Secretarial School in the fall. R. I. Honor Sccictv; French Club, '26, '27. LOUIS EDMOND JOHN FARRELL There is never any Peace. When “Duke” is there, at least. “Bang! Crash!” What’s that commotion in the cor- ridor in front of 3-7. It must he that quiet ( ?) fellow “Duke.” He came to us from George J. West Gram- mar School in 1924. Tech has been a livelier place to attend ever since. He and “Buck” are inseparable companions in all mischief. “Duke” claims English as his favorite subject. He has no definite plans for his future, but we shall probably find him at some aviation school. WILLIAM JOSEPH FASCITELLI Attention! Here comes “Bill” (bashful??) “Bill” is one of the most popular and noisiest members of our class. His sunny disposition and benevolence have won him many staunch friends during his stay at Tech. He certainly has taken part in athletics as his big “T” shows. “Bill” admits that “math” and chemistry are his favorite subjects; however, he has done good work in everything, and next fall he will probably try to make more records on Brown’s Track Team. Track, '26. '27, '28; Leaders’ Corps, ’25. '26; French Club, '26, '27, ’28. (dee Club, '26, '27. FRIEDA FELDMAN You ought to know Frieda! Really she’s worth while. During her short stay at “Tech” she has made scores of friends. Frieda is a blithsome girl and her charms—we cannot count them, for they are as numer- ous as her smiles. When she laughs, you cannot but laugh with her—and to see the twinkle in her eye! But this is not all, for Frieda has always maintained a good record in all of her studies. Frieda intends to further her musical education. We certainly wish her luck! Glee Club, ’26, '27, 28; Clef Club, '27, '28; Orchestra, '27, ’28; Dramatic Club, '27, '28.
